proposes to explore the notions of building a solo around a purely fictional
auto-biography, where movement and text can co-exist in a non-linear fashion.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:14.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:

an open system of situations and fragments that will be built up, altered, and

interlacing the vertical preparation of Ba Gua (style WU), the use of voice,
and different somatic approaches.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:14.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:

by a group improvisation, using simple (and sometimes not so simple) spatial
constructs to develop listening skills before concentrating on individual work.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:14.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:
